well i have seen this b4 so i will not post :
hint to begginers :think on multiplicative inverse
It is not at all hard , ( not only from the view point of sirs ) , so try this ----
1 > Let a , b , c, d , e …… be the positive divisors of “ n “ except n and 1 . Prove that ---------
( 1 / a ) + ( 1 / b ) + ( 1 / c ) + ( 1 / d ) + …… = p (n ) / n ,
Where p ( n ) = a + b + c + d + e ………..

Yeah , dukhia .. , you are absolutely correct about the hint ..
Try another one ,
Find the number of words that can be made from the word “ TRIANGLE “ such that the relative order of vowels do not change .
Ans is 6720 , and dukhi.. you have considered only i and e whereas a is also there in the word , which is why your ans. is very small .
in your ans , several cases as A_I_ _ _ _E have been considered which should be omitted
The least I can say , the solution too was anything beyond my imagination , but still I managed to do it :):)
small hint -- don't go in taking cases at all , just try to substitute something instead of something
I think your process is correct but there must be a calculation mistake.
no need to say " Absolutely correct sir " , I wonder from where these brainwaves come !!!!!!!!
but then of course , that is why you are nishant sir
Replace the " I , A and E " by 3 I's .
so you get the following letteres to form words --- T , R , N , G , L , I , I , I
observe that anyhow you arrange them , you are gonna get the relative order of vowels same , coz all the vowels are same only !!!!
so no.of words = no. of words that can be formed anyhow = 8! / 3!
similarly you can get this result for n lettered words also.
